Also listed as: KPM61RUG3T840, PM6-R 3.84TB, KPM6VRUG3T84 · made by Kioxia
The Kioxia PM6-R 3.84TB enterprise SSD delivers high capacity and dual-port redundancy for enterprise SAN arrays, mission-critical SQL clusters, and shared SAS storage JBODs. Built on 96-layer BiCS FLASH TLC, it reaches sustained read throughput up to 4,300 MB/s in multi-path mode. Buyers sourcing used drives should ensure the firmware does not lock the drive to a specific OEM storage controller (such as NetApp or EMC) and check that both SAS physical ports establish link cleanly.
